We always love it when we find creative people who are bringing their vintage passions to life – so it was great when we heard about Bournemouth based Ruby whose stage performances and teaching are a real blast from the past!! We especially loved the idea of hen party vintage dance classes – from the charlston and flapper dresses to burlesque – what a perfect girly afternoon with a vintage tea?

Welcome to Miss Cream Tease’s guest blog….

My name is Miss Cream Tease and I am a cabaret and burlesque performer who lives in a world where manners still matter, classic cars are compulsory, knitting rocks and afternoon tea is never missed!

I’m passionate about performing but I also love teaching dance and regularly put my first hand experience of stage-craft and to good use in my very own dance classes , including 1940’s Social Dance, Burlesque, Latin Funk & Showgirl classes. Learning to dance can be great fun and, happily, my classes are fast becoming full of retro-tastic peeps who love to boogie.

I offer a selection of unique packages for dance workshops, for Work Parties, Bespoke Events, Hen Nights and Birthday Celebrations, where you can enjoy a 2 hour dance session with your friends. Dressing up, although not essential, is highly encouraged!

In my 1940’s social dance workshops you can learn the dance sensations that took the era by storm, such as ‘The New York Stroll’ or ‘The Charleston Stroll’. So transport yourself back to the swinging world of the 1940’s and book a workshop now.

If you fancy a boogie or would like to talk to me about running a class in your area then please contact me at misscreamtease@hotmail.com

The Aviation Museum in Bournemouth is having a 1940’s style Help for Heroes Day on 1st October between 10am and 4pm. The Aviation museum is located immediately next to Adventure Wonderland at Hurn opposite the airport. The day will be a great chance to get nostalgic helped along by the live WW2 music from the gorgeous harmony singers the Polka Dot Dolls and “voice in a million” nostalgic soprano Fiona Harrison.

This is such a great cause and the day will be fantastic. Vintage Dorset has sent over our original war years flags for the show – see if you can see the old union jacks!
